Betcha my small town is smaller than your small town - no gas station, even!
I am nervous about the way Dear Leader has deliberately fueled the fires of a race war. If Doctor King were here today...I think he'd would sob at what has been done.

I'm starting to hate this planet. However if it all explodes someday I don't want to be on the ground crying, gotta follow our hearts, faith, morals, whatever you got and spread it because ridiculousness is spreading faster every damn second. See I wasn't sure if ridiculousness was a real word but spell check didn't correct it so it remained in position.

I live out in a rural area, but we have to go to a very "urban" area to shop and stuff. My parents and brother lives there. If some mess gets started it will be bad here, but thankfully we are ready. I feel bad (not really I guess) if they mess with us because we will do what we have to do to protect our families.

It started with resentment over slavery, then white disdain for blacks, then black hatred of whites, then white hatred of blacks for hating them, and on and on. I myself have become angry over the conduct and attitude of some in this predominantly black community in which I live. But somehow this has got to stop before it explodes and we all kill each other. Every time an incident like this happens the discussions about it feeds our hatred, and hatred begets hatred. Until we start living Martin Luther King's "dream" we will be living lives full of bigotry, hatred, and violence.

I would suggest to anyone of any color on TFF with feelings of hostility towards those of another race, because of their color, that it's time to let go of that stuff. We all need to go the extra mile with each other, let down the wall, and learn to respect those different from ourselves. We are all human beings with the same Heavenly Father.

You pretty much said it all but when will it end. It seems to me race relations were better before Obama. Maybe when he is gone things will improve.
